A letter from Zatatna, Prince of Akko, to Akhenaten

Let the king my Lord hear the word of his servant!

Zirdamyasha has withdrawn from Biryawaza [1].
He was with Shuta [2], the servant of the king in the city of [.........] and
I said nothing to him, but he deserted to me, and now Shuta has written to
me: 'Give Zirdamyashda to Biryawaza!' But I did not consent to give him up.
Behold, Accho [3] is (as Egyptian) as Magdal in Egypt, but the king my lord has
not heard that Shuta has turned against me. Now let the king my lord send
his commissioner to fetch him.
